handmade balls

by Bernard De Koven on May 9, 2013

“…this intimate exhibition of author and motivational speaker Kevin Carroll‘s personal travel memorabilia…focuses on Kevin’s collection of hand-crafted balls from across the world. The balls’ materials, construction techniques and various states of wear are provocative and beautiful but the resourcefulness of their creators—often children in dire conditions—is the real subject and inspires the viewer to pursue their own can-do path of DIY self-sufficiency. The collection makes tangible our undeniable human need for play and the motivating power of passion.”
